Geological Survey of Finl<strong>and</strong>, Special Paper 9<br />

Pertti Hari, Alf Björklund, Hannu Rita <strong>and</strong> Anneli Ylimartimo<br />

Fig. 3. The moving median for GEI, (K + Mg + Ca)-(Mn + Fe + AI), based on regional geochemicai data of <strong>the</strong> OeologicaI Survey of Finl<strong>and</strong>.<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r or to some o<strong>the</strong>r related property. The GEI<br />

may be interpreted as an estirnate of <strong>the</strong> acid neutralizing<br />

capacity of <strong>till</strong> (cf. de Vries & Breeuwsma<br />

1987). The accelerated cation leaching induced<br />

by increased H+ input in precipitation may lead<br />

to cation nutrient shortage being faster on soils<br />

with low GEI than on o<strong>the</strong>r soils. But <strong>the</strong> mechanism<br />

of <strong>the</strong> possible influence of <strong>till</strong> <strong>geochemistry</strong><br />

on <strong>the</strong> <strong>occurrence</strong> of scleroderris canker remains<br />

to be studied.<br />
